- Description
- This project is to*Develop a data fusion methodology that pre-processes voyage report data, sensor data, weather archive data, and AIS data and combines these four data sets in a systematic way;*Develop some ship fuel efficiency models with machine learning approaches (piecewise linear/nonlinear regression, neural network, and random forest) that quantify the synergetic influence of sailing speed, displacement/draft, trim, sea conditions, and weather conditions on a ship's daily bunker fuel consumption;*Construct a computer (Python) code infrastructure for the above data fusion methodology and ship fuel efficiency models.

- Description
- There have been increasing national and global incidences causing extreme disruptions to businesses of all kinds, for example, bush fires, pandemic, and trade war. The impacts of such disruptions on industries or businesses vary due to the nature of the industries and the size and establishment of the businesses. Small and emerging industries in the Australian agricultural sector, while agile in exploring market opportunities and responding to consumer needs, are vulnerable to extreme disruptions compared to large and well-established industries. The lack of understanding in the impacts of such disruptions on both production and profitability poses significant challenges in undertaking risk assessment and appropriate planning. The project will examine the influential factors during extreme disruptions on production and profitability, with a focus on small and emerging industries in the Australian agricultural sector. A framework will be developed to model the impacts and through quantitative process, to prioritise the areas that will affect the most the outcomes of responses. The framework will contribute to the small and emerging industries in improving preparedness for and recovery from extreme disruptions through enhanced resilience.

- Description
- The project aims to develop an operational cloud-based system with one management application and one end-user application to enhance the traceability of Australian horticultural supply chains and the digital promotion of Australian horticultural products in oversea markets. The system will allow backward and forward tracing of horticultural products along the entire supply chain providing streamlined information extraction for compliance, enhanced food safety, and proof of provenance and assurance for product authenticity for end consumers. With extensive input from all participants from the selected horticultural supply chains and related stakeholders, the digital architectural design of the system will scalability and applicability of the system to include a large number of growers and be adapted to other horticultural products with minimal modification. The end-user will include a function for the digital promotion of Australian horticultural products in oversea markets.

- Description
- The prevailing differences in design, function, and interface among the same type of navigation devices and equipment on bridge pose significant challenges to seafarers and pilots alike since they have to familiarise themselves with all the devices and equipment within very limited time when they board on a different ship. In emergent situations, such differences may lead to wrong decisions or actions causing serious maritime incidents. Due to its significance to maritime safety, the IMO has chosen the development of S-Mode as one of its top six priorities for e-Navigation and called the wide maritime industry to contribute to the development of guidelines for S-Mode by 2019. The S-Mode concept will also address the growing challenge for maritime education and training institutions (METs) of having to decide which systems to use for student training. IAMU has an important role to play in developing the guidelines for, and shaping, the S-Mode so that maritime education and training institutions are better prepared to cater for the educational and training needs of our future seafarers.The objectives of this project is to:1. Identify the challenges that METs may face in providing appropriate education and training based on S-Mode;2. Investigate, from the perspective of MET, the features that S-Mode should have for future-proofed solutions; and3. Develop optimal approaches in MET for the implementation of S-Mode.The above three objectives are aligned with IAMU's desired goals in capacity building at maritime education and training institutions (MET). The project will contribute to the aims of IAMU through developing optimal approaches to the implementation of S-Mode in METs.

- Description
- Training Centre for Innovative Horticultural Products: Adding value to horticulture value chains from producer to consumer. This project will produce "industry-relevant" researchers and lead to more convenient and longer lasting fresh and fresh-like fruits and vegetables. The project will involve growers, food processors and a major retailer to increase industry productivity, expand markets for Australian foods, and increase choices of healthy products for consumers. This Centre will train a pool of researchers focussed on needs and opportunities in the Australian food industry through projects and formal training with active collaboration from food growers, processors and retailers. This training model and its graduates will enhance the capacity of Australia's fresh produce industry to innovate to meet consumer needs and develop opportunities in local and international markets, aiding Australia's food security and improving the industry's competitiveness.

- Description
- This project investigates the transformative role of Echo360 on learning and teaching through: a) examining the impacts of the technology on student learning behaviours including learning approaches, class attendance, and the use of Echo360 generated-materials; b) investigating the relationship between class attendance, the use of Echo360-generated materials, and student performance; and c) evaluating the impacts of Echo360 on teaching efficiency and identifying effective practices in using the technology to enhance flexible and online/distance delivery. Participants of the project not only include lecturers of different disciplines, but also an education developer and a learning service coordinator. Given the wide use of Echo360 in Australian universities and limited research on the impacts of the technology on learning and teaching, there is a great opportunity for the project to be extended.
